These kitchens are two familiar shapes, so the cut list is quick. The variable is the stone, and which slab the pieces come out of. The slab is tagged when you choose it, and your kitchen is cut from that one.
Lived in by their owners55.6%
Owners tend to want to know which slab is theirs. We tag it, and what is templated is cut from that piece. The stone decides part of this, and we will show you which part.
Our granite runs from £148 to £250 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 45 colours in the range. What moves the number is the cut list — joins, cut-outs and how the pieces nest into a slab — rather than the floor area of the room.

Questions
Granite in Merton
We have a nineteen-thirties semi in Merton. What should we expect?
Usually a galley and a rear addition, which take standard-length runs with few joins. The variable is what has already been done to the back of the house: an extension or a knocked-through wall changes the run and is worth mentioning when you enquire.
Can we see a sample before ordering granite?
Not by post. We can only send offcuts of the quartz range, so granite is chosen from the range and confirmed before anything is cut. If holding the material first matters to you, the quartz samples are free and there is nothing to visit either way.
Do you cover the whole of Merton?
Yes — 21 neighbourhoods across 6 postcode districts, Bushey Mead, Cannon Hill, Colliers Wood and Figges Marsh among them. There is nothing to visit: the template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there by the same team.

The housing does not change, so most of what is on this page still applies. What changes is weight, machining and maintenance.
